Playing a few more Google games... searching for the artist, Vladislav Erko, will turn up a bunch more hits, with some larger images of the cards. http://trendland.net/2010/08/30/vladislav-erkos-playing-cards/ has some nice sized images, including the one of interest.
>From the hits I see, it looks like these cards are very new, and just hit the "art and design" blogs last week, with lots of them linking back and forth to each other. I don't see anywhere else to buy them (yet), but I wouldn't be surprised to find that they show up at another site or two in the next couple of weeks. -- Dennis Sherman Chicago, IL, USA http://www.dennissherman.com > >From: Arle Lommel <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Sent: Sun, September 5, 2010 10:06:28 AM >Subject: Re: [HG-new] Has anyone seen this before? > > >You can buy them here from a store in Russia: > >http://www.21king.ru/en/store/?deck=g01549 > > > >Not cheap at all though (EURO 25).
